For your 2003 Ford F-150 4x4 the Draw Tite front hitch part # 65025 is a confirmed fit so what I suspect is going on is that your hitch was bent in shipping which unfortunately isn't uncommon. What you can do is bend the hitch back using an open stairwell, vice, or jack and as long as the paint doesn't flake or crease it would be fine.
I added a help article on bent hitches for you to check out as well.
